NEON STRUCT

Slayer Shock [official site] is the recently announced first-person Buffy-like vampire-killing game from David Pittman, creator of Eldritch and Neon Struct. The game has now landed on Steam Greenlight, with a ten minute walkthrough video showing a couple of missions as well as the coffee shop hub where mission planning and research takes place. It looks more in-depth than I'd expected, with team mates to…

Somehow we've not mentioned before that Eldritch and Neon Struct studio Minor Key Games are making a role-playing first-person shooter about youngfolk hunting vampires in Nebraska. Silly us. Slayer Shock [official site] is due to come out later this year and comes to my attention today through a new dev blog post with the catchy name Everything I Need to Know About Writing Video Games…

Neon Struct [official site] is one of the 25 best stealth games on PC, says our Adam, and who am I to disagree with him? Him with his gentle voice and wry smile.

Do you remember us talking to you about Neon Struct [official site]? It's a "political thriller stealth game set in a neon-soaked surveillance state" from David Pittman of Minor Key Games (the studio behind Lovecraftian roguelike, Eldritch) which inspired Alice's short-lived crusade against sewers last year. Well, there's now a release date for you to add to your diary, should any of that tickle your…

Hands up: who wants to be a secret cyberagent on the lam in the garish and cruel future? You'll note that you can't raise your hand, as while you were all distracted by that screenshot, I snuck around breaking your arms. And that, MI6, is why you should defs hire me once you get into the cyberagent game. It's also why I'm quite keen to…

While John's waging war on oceans (a traumatic crab experience as a child, perhaps?), I've decided that my first Official RPS Crusade will be against far less pleasant bodies of water. Cnut that I am, I set my throne before waves of lurid green sludge and futilely declare: no sewers. I've chosen my first champion. A game bold enough to cut a sewer level because…
